Howa MZN-P320H-VCJ VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 19.6 inches in length by 11.4 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 176 lbs. An optional index table and rotary table provide enhanced flexibility for complex machining operations. The vertical spindle utilizes a BT30 taper, delivering high-speed performance with a maximum spindle speed of 15,000 RPM and a 30-minute power rating of 5.0 HP, ensuring efficient material removal and precision finishing. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 16 tools, expandable to 24 tools, and rapid tool change times of 0.7 seconds with a chip-to-chip time of 1.7 seconds. A standard two-pallet changer further increases productivity by minimizing downtime during workpiece changes. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for advanced applications. Axis travels are 12.6 inches (X), 8.7 inches (Y), and 12.9 inches (Z), supporting a wide range of part sizes. Maximum feed rates reach 394 IPM, while rapid traverse speeds achieve 1,968 IPM on all axes, enabling swift and accurate positioning. This configuration delivers high-speed, high-precision machining suitable for demanding industrial applications, with reliable performance and flexible automation options.
